A skinny, possibly “gloomy” Harlem townhouse is granted “Estate of the Day” honors at Luxist. Why? The 1910 house has a planted terrace, garden, 12-foot-high parlor floor, and original details like mahogany-framed windows and carved staircase. [Lux]

The ‘New Park Slope’ bears shockingly little semblance to the original. Unless the old Park Slope was a pioneer of comfort and style, and a modern and exciting residential corridor, and “rich with the ambience and energy…” [Curbed]
